the story is verry good in both of them and i sugest u to start with KOTOR 1.

too bad that KOTOR 3 will be a mmorpg, that will ruin it… don’t know why they don’t make more games and movies like kotor or jedy knights, they have alot of story material with all the star wars books wich r all verry good!

Not sure how I feel about Dead Space — I’m not a big horror fan. Even the shooters I play, I do it mostly to experience the story/world. In that sense, the first few hours of play on the Citadel in Mass Effect were the most sf gaming experiences I have ever had: awe-inspiring setting, interesting conversations with alien diplomats, just the experience of walking around overhearing conversations between passersby on an enormous space station, etc.

And speaking of Knights of the Old Republic (the book art looks amazing), are the KOTOR video games worth playing for the story/world?
